The Church's teaching on sexuality that lies behind its teaching that contraception is intrinsically immoral is dazzlingly beautiful.
Many people whose understanding has been clouded by the corruption of our culture have difficulty understanding it.
09/ 04/08Planned Parenthood, the billion dollar corporate abortion mill, has taken indecency to a whole new level and is using your taxpayer dollars to do so.
09/ 03/08The risk John McCain took last Friday is comparable to the 72-year-old ex-fighter pilot knocking back two shots and flying his A-4 under the Golden Gate Bridge.
McCain's choice of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin to be his co-pilot was the biggest gamble in presidential history. As of now, it is paying off, big-time.
09/ 03/08During my last pregnancy, I qualified for excellent, free state medical insurance because of our lower income. My husband is in graduate school for a while. This insurance coverage is part of the state's healthy start program for pregnant women and young kids.
09/ 02/08Women and Men across America are cheering the VP pick of John McCain. Here a look at who she is...
08/ 31/08When asked about when life begins Pelosi answered "...what I know is, over the centuries, the doctors of the Church have not been able to make that definition.”
08/ 26/08Monday was the first day that Planned Parenthood, which operates the only abortion business in South Dakota, had to comply with a new state law telling women the truth about abortion. Rather than tell women abortion kills children and has numerous risks, Planned Parenthood closed its doors.
07/ 22/08Last year, Planned Parenthood performed more than 250,000 abortions, which account for about 1 in 5 of our country's total. Of all abortions, those performed for black women accounted for about a third of the procedures. It's also worth noting that a majority of Planned Parenthood's clinics are in minority neighborhoods.
07/ 15/08Day Gardner: Planned Parenthood has basically bought off Barack Obama
07/ 15/08Democratic and Republican candidates must reject donations from Planned Parenthood this election year, and Congress should end all federal funding for the abortion provider, according to black pro-life leaders who held two press conferences last week in Washington, D.C., at Democratic and Republican Party Committee headquarters.
07/ 03/08For the last few decades, evangelicals repeatedly have mobilized and demonstrated to oppose the operation of abortion clinics. Over the years, many have believed that being anti-abortion had become a litmus test for their support of politicians and policies, which vie for evangelical votes.
07/ 03/08Exit poll after exit poll in election after election shows the Democratic Party is staunchly supported by an overwhelming majority of African-American voters, many of whom are much more socially conservative on issues like abortion than their party leadership.

07/ 02/08Press release from Kansas for Life
06/ 27/08During the last few years, everyone in the nation has come to understand that things are not always the way they appear with individuals or organizations. While all of us struggle to live up to our ideals, some groups live permanently in the land of personal or professional compromise.
06/ 23/08Hat's off to Govenor Sarah Palin and her stay-at-home husband. In Alaska they call him "the first dude". This couple brings a magic to the National political scene that words cannot capture. And it is driving the left crazy. Here is an accomplished and tested Govenor who has shown consistent strength as a leader in her state while balancing a large family.
For years the feminists and Democrats have supposedly fought for equal opportunity and equal pay for women. Now they have revealed the only true quality they consider to be essential to be a success in politics: being pro-abortion.
Sarah Palin and her husband examplify what real teamwork in marriage is all about. Each shares in the other's sucesses and failures while working and selflessly loving each other. Together they have sacrificed to step forward and do what many people simply complain about: changing their world through their own service. She brings a great knowledge to the ticket in energy and the environment and Executive experience that has served her home state very well.
Read More...Finally a woman on the national Presidential stage who reflects the values and convictions of the majority of
women and men in America. A proven leader, a strong record of sound and discerning judgement, and someone
who so reflects what we as Americans want to see.....an everyday citizen, wife, and mother who has stepped forward
(with the support of a strong husband) to make a difference. YES!! She is ready. We applaude Senator McCain for
this courageous choice which shows how very in touch he really is with middle America.

It is always amazing during these discussions when the element of science is left out of it. Anyone who can say that they do not know when life begins is either ignorant or intellectually dishonest. It is obvious here that those protecting the "sacrament of abortion" are intentionally intellectually dishonest. Click the link to see:

Kathleen Sebelius to stop taking Communion until she disowns her support for the "serious moral evil" of abortion. That put the church in conflict with a rising star of the Democratic Party, often described as a "moderate" and perhaps the leading prospect to become Barack Obama's vice presidential running mate.
Naumann also took Sebelius to task for her veto April 21 of a bill, passed two to one by both houses of the Kansas Legislature, which would strengthen the state's ban on late-term abortions by authorizing private lawsuits against providers. That followed by a year her veto of a bill requiring explicit medical reasons for a late abortion, which was preceded by vetoing other abortion legislation in 2006, 2005 and 2003.
Those positions are necessary for Democratic politicians to pass their party's pro-choice litmus test, but Sebelius' connection with abortion is more intimate. She is allied with the aggressive Kansas branch of Planned Parenthood in a bitter struggle with anti-abortion activist District Attorney Phill Kline.

Machine politics is generally associated with
cities, the cynical cronyism that is the prerequisite to wholesale
corruption and urban decay. But these days it’s at its worst in, of all
places, Kansas, under the governorship of leading Democratic
vice-presidential contender, Kathleen Sebelius.
Just ask Phill Kline.
The former state attorney general and current district attorney of
Johnson County, in suburban Kansas City, Kline is that most unfortunate
of political creatures — the inspired reformer. The object of his
quixotic campaign is to reform the abortion laws of Kansas — not by
changing them, but by simply enforcing them.
In a place like Kansas, you might think, that’s T-ball politics — but that would only be in the Kansas of popular (and Thomas Frank’s)
imagination, where wily conservatives are winning the culture wars.
They’re definitely not, as Kline now knows well. He started his mission
after being elected attorney general in 2002.
